New EXD Metal Backup Sights from Mission First Tactical
Even though I personally prefer polymer backup sights for my rifles, there are a lot of you out there who prefer the extra durability that metal backup irons often have. Mission First Tactical is excited to announce its new EXD Metal Backup sights, which feature a fixed 300-meter zero and are constructed entirely from CNC machined steel with no cast parts.
TFB Review: XS Sights R3D Night Sights – Does the Glow Dot Work?
Iron sights for pistols are probably one of the most prevalent frequent upgrades seen within the firearms market. Stock sights are often just fine for range work and even precise shooting in some cases, but aftermarket options like the ones from XS Sights can often offer the end-user more flexibility when it comes to effectiveness during all hours of the day. This is why night sights are often selected by concealed carriers as their standard iron sights. Night sights most commonly use tritium vials embedded within the front and rear sights (sometimes just the front) in order to give the shooter a standard notch and post sight picture during the day, and a three-dot sight picture in low light shooting conditions. XS Sights R3D (Radio Active Material 3-Dot) night sights have recently been introduced to two new platforms – the H&K VP9 OR CZ P-10. Today we’ll be taking a look at both offerings to see what they can offer shooters who own either platform.

Meprolight Mepro FRBS Updated with Hyper-Bright Front Sight
Meprolight’s wildly popular FRBS backup iron sights have received a recent update with their Hyper-Bright front sight which now features not only the tritium insert but also your choice of a bright green, yellow, or orange shroud which should aid in faster target and sight acquisition. The rear sight that comes with the pair is still available in either the two-dot or four-dot crosshair configuration with both sets of FRBS iron sights being available in either black or tan coloring.
